Hey guys, ran the car today. Best time was 12.65 @ 129.82 with a 3k lauch. When I had the nuts to really go balls out I forgot to turn the 2 step off after getting off the line and ran a 12.8 shifting at 5400. I feel pretty good about what was accomplised today. I may not have had the e/t that I was looking for, but I exceeded expectations for mph. What can you expect after not being to a track for almost 2 years. Vids and such uploaded later.

Badass!! Now catch up to fetter already lol
very nice! how do 12's feel, sir?
60's?
I'm tired of wasting my time... now I'm breakin' free.
Hows it feel to only be 4 tenths faster than a stock motor turbo ld9???
lol, just bustin your balls man good runs. Im sure when you get used to the car again they will drop. What tires were these with? Trap's look good and positive your times will improve.
Tires are 26x9.5x16 hoosier quick time pros. 60's were as follows, 1st run = 3.518, 2nd run = 3.251, 3rd run = 2.350, 4th run = 2.517, 5th run = 2.185, 6th run = 2.326, and the only 2 step pass of the day was the last run and I forgot to flip it off...1.941. The car has it, I just have to drive it.

Nope.....
When he ran the 1.9 60 he forgot to turn off the 2 step meaning he had a 5400 rpm rev limiter
and STILL ran a 12.8
12, very nice. I hope to be there one day as well. Looking forward to videos!

"Talk to me Jakey this ain't working man....you got a nasty hull, tune the HPT and you'll run 10's"
I know it's not the exact quote it's been modified to fit the situation.

Great Job! I was expecting a little bit lower e/t's, but it's understandable for the first time out.
Looking forward to see more dropping times!
Good job dude. Those trap speeds are insane.
Im thinking 11s wont be a problem next track day.
Not to make more excuses than I already have, but this was also my first time at Cordova, I had a hell of a time keeping my car in the "groove" in the left lane. I got out of it a little bit on one pass and that was the last time I ran that lane. Car kept wanting to pull to the outside wall when it was down the center of the track. It was the 13.05 run that I would get on it, pull to the left, get off, steer a bit get back on let off, steer, get on it. That was a scary ride on that one.
Next track day should be in a couple weeks at a track that I'm more familiar with, Byron. You guys want 11's, they should come provided my luck stays the same with the axles and trans.
